Openbor on usb
-
Hello i've installed openbor on retropie 4.5.1 it's work fine on sd card but i've move my games on usb key, like my other system. I've add openbor on ES menu and i've change the directory files in es_system.cfg, but it's does not work. I've tried to create an extract.sh files on my usb key ( /roms/ports/openbor/extract.sh ) but still not work ( permission denied) anbybody have an idea ?
-
My guess is your USB key is FAT32 formatted and it doesn't support the executable bit for
extract.sh(hence the error). Try extracting the OpenBor games before transferring them to the USB. -
ok i'll try this solution but I don't really how I can do that. Do I make a script for extract and move then finish, I cant' extract to my usb directly ?
-
@wsamael The extract script is created by the install script in
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor/extract.sh. You copy your.pakfiles in theports/openborfolder and then execute it - it will create a folder for each.pakgamefile. -
You can use this script here to extract your PAKs

i've see this script but how do i use it ? do i lunch it by
wget "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/RetroPie-OpenBOR-scripts/master/extract.sh ?( this script is the v0.67 is it better ? ) and if I wanna make my rom in /media/usb/roms/ports/openbors where do I make the directory ?
-
@wsamael No you lunch usually no scripts
you download it with the
wgetcommand and and then you excute withbash -
@cyperghost ok Thanks :) I 'll try this as soon as I can :)
ps: just one last question ( I hope ^^ ) where do I change the files directory to put mine (/media/usb/roms/ ports/openbor ) ?
I must change this line
" BORROM_DIR="/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/openbor" " -
@wsamael Yes the script looks for your
*.pakfiles in the directory you mentioned, so change the path here. -
it doesn' twork :( the game has created in th efolder, it's not appear in openbor. that work with
BORROM_DIR="/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/openbor"
but it's not with
BORROM_DIR="/media/usb0/roms/ports/openbor" work with
in the both of them, that extract the game but in "usb" i can't launch it
ps sorry about my english i hope you understand me ;)

@wsamael Is there any error during extraction?
How do you launch the OpenBOR? -
I think is no error during extraction
And I try to launch OPB with the ES Menu (like another system ) or I try to launch in ports menu an Ports menu but that dosn't work
i saw it in es menu but if I launch it that launch opb menu and may rom dosn't appear
-
asterix it's ok (on sd card) but street fighter ( on usb key) dosn't work . If I launch it, that launch opb and not Street fighter
( I hope you understand what i mean )
-
@wsamael The OpenBOR engine you are using is very old. That may be the reason that Asterix (also an old BOR title) works and Street Fighter maybe not. Did you try to extract Asterix on USB key, too?
-
@cyperghost
No Astérix is extract on sd card with your script in/home/pi/RetroPie/.... and it's work goodHow can i update openbor ? I've install it bye retropie-setup ?
-
sorry , yes I try to extract asterix on usb ans it's not ok, but if I extract street fighter on sd , it's work good
